Toner, developer, process cartridge, image forming apparatus, image forming method, and method for manufacturing toner

Abstract

A toner is provided. The toner comprises a glittering pigment and a coloring pigment. The glittering pigment is disposed inside the toner. The coloring pigment comprises a yellow pigment comprising an isoindoline pigment.

The invention claimed is: 
     
       1. A toner comprising:
 a glittering pigment disposed inside the toner; and 
 a coloring pigment comprising a yellow pigment comprising an isoindoline pigment, 
 wherein a content of the coloring pigment is from 10 to 35 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the glittering pigment. 
 
     
     
       2. The toner of  claim 1 , wherein the isoindoline pigment comprises C.I. Pigment Yellow 185. 
     
     
       3. The toner of  claim 1 , wherein the coloring pigment further comprises a magenta pigment. 
     
     
       4. A developer comprising the toner of  claim 1 . 
     
     
       5. A process cartridge detachably mountable on an image forming apparatus, comprising:
 a photoconductor; and 
 a developing device containing the developer of  claim 4 , configured to develop an electrostatic latent image on the photoconductor with the developer. 
 
     
     
       6. An image forming apparatus comprising:
 a photoconductor; 
 an electrostatic latent image forming device configured to form an electrostatic latent image on the photoconductor; 
 a developing device containing the developer of  claim 4 , configured to develop the electrostatic latent image on the photoconductor with the developer to form a toner image; 
 a transfer device configured to transfer the toner image onto a recording medium; and 
 a fixing device configured to fix the transferred toner image on the recording medium. 
 
     
     
       7. An image forming method comprising:
 forming an electrostatic latent image on a photoconductor; 
 developing the electrostatic latent image with the developer of  claim 4  to form a toner image; 
 transferring the toner image onto a recording medium; and 
 fixing the transferred toner image on the recording medium. 
 
     
     
       8. A toner comprising:
 glittering pigment particles; and 
 coloring pigment particles, 
 wherein 80% or more of the coloring pigment particles are disposed at a position A and 75% or more of the glittering pigment particles are disposed at a position B, 
 wherein the position A and the position B are on a line connecting a center of gravity of the toner as a start point to a surface of the toner as an end point via a center of gravity of each of the coloring pigment particles and glittering pigment particles, and a distance from the start point to the position A is 0.6 times or more a total distance between the start point and the end point and a distance from the start point to the position B is less than 0.6 times the total distance. 
 
     
     
       9. The toner according to  claim 8 , wherein the isoindoline pigment comprises C.I. Pigment Yellow 185. 
     
     
       10. A method for manufacturing toner, comprising:
 dispersing an organic liquid, comprising a glittering pigment and a coloring pigment, in an aqueous medium to form an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion, 
 wherein the coloring pigment comprises a yellow pigment comprising an isoindoline pigment, 
 and wherein a content of the coloring pigment is from 10 to 35 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the glittering pigment.
